"Tell me more."
"What specifically would you like to hear."
"Start with the great grandchildren."
"Carl and Melissa? They're siblings, Carl is thirty-nine, looks a lot younger, and Melissa would be, I think, thirty-four. They both grew up in Amsterdam, and lived for a while with their mother in Switzerland. They're super wealthy, but you'd never know it, they're really down to earth and unpretentious. Carl is a journalist, and Melissa works in artistic design, she is also a trained chef and the most incredible cook I've known. She has Asperger's, so can come across as grumpy and taciturn, but really has a heart of gold and will really stick out her neck for others. She also has a black belt in karate, so you could call her a force to be reckoned with. Carl has one of the most amazing senses of humour I've ever reckoned with, he's like a big kid, and full of love for others, kind of a party boy, but very gentle, and very direct. He was a male prostitute as a teenager in Amsterdam, but left that life behind. He is also quite a flirt!"
"He flirts with you?"
"Shamelessly. We seem to have become pretty close friends, and spend a lot of time together."
"Don't make me jealous!"
"Fear not. It's all pretty innocent."
"You said there are others."
